Audrina Patridge isn't the only Hillzie who's got the inside scoop on up-and-coming new artists. Last week, Stephanie Pratt took time outta her busy feuding-with-Kristin-Cavallari schedule to film a cameo for Hot Chelle Rae's new video, "I Like To Dance." And in her (negligibly) unbiased opinion, these guys have major hit potential.

"ok not because i have a new crush on the band but for real i can't stop playing 'I Like to Dance,'" Steph tweeted shortly after filming wrapped. And we're kinda inclined to agree. Not only is the four-man electro pop squad easy on the eyes ('specially you, Ian!) but they have an edgy, punk rock sound that calls to mind some type of retro, Queen-inspired mash-up between Franz Ferdinand and Panic! at the Disco.

So check out these pix of Spencer's sis bonding with the band (love the leather, lady!), then hit up the guys' official site to get the latest scoop on their first-evs album, Lovesick Electric, which hits stores Tuesday, Oct. 27! Oh, and check back soon to watch Steph's scene-stealin' cameo! (Uh, in the meantime, help kill time by watching Spencer get his faced punched in Fall Out Boy's "I Don't Care.")

Of all the amazing moments this season (and really, who could forget Johnny Knoxville and Snoop talking about their amazing-but-never-gonna-happen show, Blackass) we gotta say we've enjoyed the live musical performances the most. And since everyone from Cypress Hill to Keri Hilson has lit up the Dogg After Dark stage, we figured we'd give you a chance to watch them all over again and vote for your fave.

After schmoozing with Fall Out Boy (and honorary thug Robin Thicke) last week, Snoop's breaking bread with some of the biggest, baddest dudes to ever play in the NFL. Get a sneak peek at tonight's Dogg After Dark action by hearing what Priest Holmes (a.k.a. 2002's Offensive Player of the Year) has to say about getting slammed by a 400-pound behemoth.

Thanks to Snoop Dogg, we've gotten to see Paris Hilton rap, Nick Cannon stake out a ladies room and Hugh Hefner's ex-girlfriend stuff her face with BBQ ribs. And tonight's round of celebrity interviews yielded another crop of memorable moments at the Dogghouse.

Did ya like hearing about Robin Thicke's Chronic fetish? How 'bout F.O.B.'s cartoon obsession? Take our poll and let us know which of Snoop's sit-downs had you glued to your seat this week.

After watching the first three episodes of Dogg After Dark, we can safely (albeit embarrassingly) say Snoop has more celebrity guest stars than we have actual friends. And this week, the famous faces just keep on comin'! Watch this sneak peek from tonight's ep, admire Snoop's ability to chat up Pete Wentz like they're long-lost emo soulmates and get ready for that crazy crossover cartoon starring Snoop Dogg and the dudes from Fall Out Boy!

This week's been full of ups and downs. We said hello to (the still-dreamy!!) Carson Daly, goodbye to TRL and watched our fave stars from the past 10 years brave the screaming fans in Times Square one last time to send the once-beloved show out in a blaze of live music glory.

And since the MTV veejays, the fans and the performers (like Beyonce, 50 Cent, Fall Out Boy and yes, the Backstreet Boys) put on such a brave face, we've decided to celebrate the last-ever week of TRL by posting these amazing performance clips from Total Finale Live. Check em' out, plus catch our all-time fave "Top Ten" countdowns after the jump.

Oh, and feel free to dance in your seats (and/or break out the "I LOVE YOU, CARSON!" signs) one last time. It's what TRL would've wanted.

+ After the jump, catch the Top Ten Funniest Videos, and the Top Ten Times Square Moments.

It's official: Total Request Live (a.ka. TRL, a.k.a. the show that introduced us to the likes of Britney Spears, *NSYNC and blink-182 and made Times Square synonymous with Screaming Tween Girls) is O-V-E-R.

And while normally we hate teary goodbyes (we're the strong, silent type), last night was one farewell extravaganza we weren't gonna miss.

Check out these pics from Total Finale Live and relive the amazingness of seeing TRL's original veejay (and our late 90's crush) Carson Daly and Damien Fahey (our early 2000's crush) co-host the best buh-bye in TV history, featuring performances by Beyonce and Fall Out Boy and appearances by Justin Timberlake, Ludacris and Diddy.

Then head over to TRL's homepage to catch tons more behind-the-scenes footage, show highlights, live performances and a decade's worth of mushy photo booth memories. TRL 4EVA!

I didn't think it would be possible to one-up the Spaghetti Cat, but Spencer Pratt puts that fug kitty to shame in Fall Out Boy's new video for "I Don't Care."

Proving that the-guy-you-don't-bring-home-to-mom really does have a good sense of humor, the vid closes with a cameo of Spencer lying in a pool of his own blood. No really, it's meant to be funny! Just take a lookie for yourself:
